Gas-liquid chromatographic determination of bromacil residues. 1980

K C Ting, and G A Root, and G R Tichelaar

A simple, fast, and accurate method has been developed to determine residues of bromacil (5-bromo-3-sec-butyl-t-methyluracil) herbicide. Following sample extraction, filtration, and concentration, the herbicide is determined using a gas chromatograph equipped with a thermionic nitrogen/phosphorus detector. The method has been used to recover 0.04 ppm bromacil added to citrus, pineapple, soil, and water, and 0.1 ppm bromacil added to alfalfa hay.

D010573	Pesticide Residues	Pesticides or their breakdown products remaining in the environment following their normal use or accidental contamination.	Pesticide Residue,Residue, Pesticide,Residues, Pesticide
D001976	Bromouracil	5-Bromo-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione. Brominated derivative of uracil that acts as an antimetabolite, substituting for thymine in DNA. It is used mainly as an experimental mutagen, but its deoxyriboside (BROMODEOXYURIDINE) is used to treat neoplasms.	5-Bromouracil,Bromuracil,5 Bromouracil
D002849	Chromatography, Gas	Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.
